Hard luck to our U-21 hurlers, who lost out in the District Final tonight against Buffers Alley. The strong wind meant it was always going to be a real game of two halves, and that's exactly how it turned out, with Ferns building up a big lead before the break but then the Alley coming back afterwards and eventually overhauling us.

There was further bad news for Ferns too as Gavin Bailey again suffered what looks like a serious injury during the first half. Hopefully it won't turn out to be as bad as we fear.
